Firefly Echoes of War: Serenity Crew

The War between the Alliance and the Independents is a sore subject for a lot of folks, some more than others. Take Captain Malcolm Reynolds for example. Now here’s a guy who fought in the Battle of Serenity Valley and laid down arms in front of his enemy. That kind of experience changes a man—and it’ll change you, too.

Serenity Crew allows you to spend your days playing Mal, Zoe, Wash, Kaylee, Inara, Jayne, Simon, Book, or River. If you’re the type that wants to try something new, take a gander at the twelve archetypes we’re offering you, too. If the math’s right, that’s twenty-one different options for you to play a character in the ‘Verse.

Serenity Crew includes material found in the Firefly RPG corebook. If you have a copy of the corebook, you do not need to purchase this product.

Serenity Crew is part of the Echoes of War role-playing adventure series, which is centered on a common theme: the Unification War. All characters and archetypes in this release employ the Cortex Plus system. The Serenity Crew is compatible with the Echoes of War adventures and all other releases in the Firefly Role-Playing Game line, which are all sold separately. The Firefly Role-Playing Game is based on the hit television series by Fox.

This release was first featured in Gaming in the 'Verse: Gen Con 2013 Exclusive. This title is the stand-alone version, and the rules are designed for short-term play. You will need this product, the Gen Con Exclusive, or the Firefly RPG corebook to play Echoes of War adventures.

This book, which came out well before the main Firefly RPG core rulebook, is designed to enable you to leap into action with the adventure series Echoes of War. For those who fancy playing the crew of the TV series, they are presented in detail, whilst [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
